System Integration and Interface Compatibility for eSSL BG100

The eSSL BG100 articulated folding arm automatic boom barrier (SKU: KTI02002001BOFF) is engineered with an open interface architecture designed for straightforward field integration into commercial parking management systems, automated toll systems, and perimeter access control environments. Featuring dry contact input control signaling, the barrier controller seamlessly communicates with multi-door access controllers, standalone readers, and vehicle management networks without requiring proprietary protocol converters.

Access Control Panel and Reader Interfacing

The BG100 accepts standard dry contact inputs to execute gate open, stop, and close commands. This universal electrical signaling standard ensures complete compatibility with:

• Access Control Panels: Readily connects to centralized, multi-door access control panels across leading security architectures using relay switch outputs.
• Standalone Access Control Units: Compatible with standalone RFID badge readers, biometric terminals, and digital access keypads delivering momentary dry contact relay closures.
• External Push Button Stations: Integrates with exterior manual push button consoles in guard booths or reception desks to command open, close, and emergency stop actions in addition to the integrated three-button internal controller.

Safety and Vehicle Detection Input Interfaces

To support high-throughput parking management while guarding against vehicle impacts, the internal control module provides dedicated terminal interfaces for critical safety hardware. Supported vehicle detection and perimeter safety sensors include:

• Inductive Vehicle Loop Detectors: Features a dedicated input interface to receive vehicle presence and pulse signals from inductive loop detectors, facilitating automated closing cycles and anti-tailgating logic.
• Infrared Safety Photocells: Direct terminal connection for active infrared beam photocell sets, preventing arm descent when optical light beams across the roadway are obstructed.
• Air Pressure Switches: Dedicated input interface for safety edge pneumatic air switches, operating alongside the unit's built-in bumping bounce-back safety mechanism to reverse arm travel upon contact.

Traffic Control Signalization and Auxiliary Outputs

The internal barrier controller provides an onboard output interface dedicated to a traffic or warning lamp. This interface allows facilities to wire an external indicator signal light that displays barrier transit states, warning drivers during the 6-second transit cycle or alerting motorists when lane clearance is authorized.

Mechanical and Electrical Operating Clearances

Engineered for height-restricted parking facilities such as underground parking garages and covered basements, the BG100 utilizes an articulated folding aluminium arm spanning up to a maximum length of 5 meters. The mechanical articulation can be configured in segment distributions of 2.5 m + 2.5 m, 3 m + 2 m, or 2 m + 3 m. The arm interfaces directly with the included external boom rest stand to ensure structural stability in the horizontal resting position.

Electrical power compatibility is delivered through an integrated internal switched-mode power supply (SMPS) supporting input lines of AC 220V / 110V at 50Hz / 60Hz to power the 90 W, 220 V AC drive motor. In addition to manual bypass operations for site commissioning, the system interfaces with wireless remote controls operating at line-of-sight ranges of up to 25 meters, complemented by configurable auto-closing dwell intervals programmable between 1 and 80 seconds.
